Artist SinGh, whose real name is Gurmej Singh, has attracted a lot of attention since 2010 when his painting of a nude, blindfolded woman with her legs spread was displayed in the front yard of his South Burdick Street studio. SinGh participated last year in the Grand Rapids art show, ArtPrize, where artists work is displayed in several locations around the city.

He made headlines when his exhibit, "Captivity," which included the hanging of an effigy of Saddam Hussein, was removed by the Greg Gilmore, the owner of The B.O.B. where the installation was located. It become a verbal spat between Gilmore and SinGh with the artist threatening legal action.

But in an interview with Grand Rapids Press/MLive.com reporter John Serba earlier this week, SinGh said he's moved on. He also will return to ArtPrize this year where he plans to set a Guinness World Record for the longest painting.

First, SinGh will promote his ArtPrize exhibit with a series of live paintings at Milham Park on Saturday. In a press release, SinGh said he will "risk his life simply to promote his cause and art." He will draw and paint while "rolling on a barrel" and give the creation to a park visitor. At around 2 p.m., he also will paint while hanging upside down "from a tree without a harness" and may "fall into the river underneath."

SinGh will conclude his stint at the park by jumping from a 40-foot tree, according to the press release.
